Hydrogen sulfide corrosion and its prevention is an important topic in a range of industrial processes and environments including oil and gas and its related activities.
Mild steel is a popular structural steel in this industry but is susceptible to surface scale formation and associated corrosive action, the prevention of which requires some special methods.

The twin roll casting method offers huge time and cost savings in comparison to traditional processes as it focusses on creating strip materials directly from liquid alloys.
Through the study of twin rolled magnesium microstructures it can be clearly seen that the finished product structure is uniform, significantly refined, and almost equiaxed throughout the cross section.

Metal-Matrix Composites (MMCs) are engineered combinations of two or more materials (one of which is a metal) in which tailored properties are achieved by systematic combinations of different constituents. Conventional monolithic materials have limitations in terms of achievable combinations of strength, stiffness, coefficient of expansion, and density.
